ANALYZE POTENTIALS,SIMULATE SERVICE LEVEL:G.I.B DISPO-COCKPIT CONTROLLINGFOR INVENTORY OPTIMIZATION
G.I.B Dispo-Cockpit Controlling helps
you to realize a sustainable inventoryoptimization with a minimum expen-
diture of time. You will be supported by
industry-specific rule sets, based upon
any number of dimensions, e.g. delivery
classes, product life cycle such as
LRODI, value (ABC), constancy (XYZ)
and many more. These rule sets can be
implemented into G.I.B Dispo-Cockpit
as pre-configured industry content. The
pre-configuration reduces product launch
time and leads to a higher degree ofefficiency.
G.I.B Dispo-Cockpit Controlling allows
to control inventory and MRP from one
central application. By determination of
certain indicators such as capital turno-
ver and range of coverage you will
obtain – automated through applica-tion of rule set – an optimum proposi-
tion for adjusting your MRP parameters.
Consequence: optimization of your key
figures. With ease you can realize a
target-oriented navigation through your
inventory key figures and obtain a cru-
cial transparency.
Thanks to the simulation mode you can
simulate the provided rule sets and their
effects on stock and service level. Thissimulation may be calculated on the
level of an individual material, of user-
defined aggregation and of a whole
plant as well. The simulation mode may
be regarded as a kind of “learning
ground” where the cooperative effects
of different MRP types, lot-sizing proce-
dures (Andler, Groff, etc.) and safetyvalues can be forecast accurately. This
ensures safety and acceptance of the
application.

G.I.B Dispo-Cockpit Operations repre-
sents the module for day-to-day busi-ness of everybody operating in the field
of SCM. Thanks to individual user lay-
outs and predefined default layouts all
MRP-relevant information can be
retrieved and displayed graphically.
These are:
• Missing parts
• Exceptions
• Material master data monitoring
• Forecasts and consumptions(graphical/tabular)
• Vendor and purchasing information
• Manufacturing and production order
information
The user navigates through his day-to-
day business and is able to base his
MRP relevant decisions on reliable
information.
Within the period details displayed in
G.I.B Dispo-Cockpit Operations allrelevant pieces of information such as
receipts and issues, requirements,
planned orders etc. can be presented
in a timeline. This timeline can be drilled
down to day, week or month and
displayed both on the level of individu-
al materials and for a material group
as well.
In addition, conversions of both
planned orders and purchase requi-sitions can be initiated directly from
one single user interface. Production
information such as WIP, which is cru-
cial for many companies, is easily man-
aged by G.I.B Dispo-Cockpit Opera-
tions as well.
Cross-plant views on level of individual
materials, BOM explosions or where-
used lists can fast and easily be dis-
played. Topics such as cross- or inter-company business transactions are
taken into account by G.I.B Dispo-
Cockpit Operations. Ranges of cover-
age based on consumption, require-
ments or even customer specifications
can be conveniently set and controlled
by traffic lights and exceptions.

ADVANCE YOUR IDEAS, HIT YOUR TARGETS:G.I.B DISPO-COCKPIT KANBANFOR PROCESS OPTIMIZATION
G.I.B Dispo-Cockpit Kanban addresses
companies already employing Kanbanprocesses or considering a Kanban
implementation. An individually defin-
able decision tree will guide you to the
optimum Kanban process.
By means of a user-defined question-
naire the process check allows to deter-
mine the Kanban suitability of a material.
As a result of the check you will obtain
a list of all Kanban processes which are
applicable to the material.
In order to determine suitable materials
for Kanban more than one perspectivewill be necessary. The XYZ/XYZ analy-
sis classifies materials of the G.I.B
Dispo-Cockpit Kanban at the level of
plant, material, cost center/supply area
(demand source) according to their
consumption quantity on the one hand
and according to the number of access-
es on the other. You may conduct a
direct classification (current indicator)
or a delta-classification as well.
In case of already existing control
cycles, control cycle dimensioninggenerates default values for control
cycle optimization. In case of an initial
generation of control cycles default
values for dimensioning are created.
Both procedures are conducted accord-
ing to user-defined formulas.

Kanban represents a method of replenishment con- trol following the push-pull principle and basedupon the requirement of consuming units in theproduction process. Control cycles on cost center/ supply area level constitute the core element of thiskind of production control.
The predefined operation mode within the G.I.BDispo-Cockpit Kanban module and the integratedtraffic light control permit a fast and convenientaccess to this type of replenishment control and along-term stock reduction of certain intermediateand finished products.

DETERMINE SEQUENCE, ENHANCE CAPACITY:G.I.B DISPO-COCKPIT PLANNING FOR PRODUCTION PLANNING
Normally, planning-relevant capacities
belong to different production andresponsibility areas. Accordingly, in
G.I.B Dispo-Cockpit Planning production
areas are divided into planning and
information areas which at the same time
represent the basis for the subsequent
WIP determination.
With G.I.B Dispo-Cockpit Planning you
will obtain a tabular planning table for
an optimum capacity planning and
sequencing of production, process andplanned orders or of run schedule quanti-
ties in the field of repetitive manufac-
turing. By drag and drop, orders which
have not yet been scheduled can be
scheduled in a simulation mode andchecked for feasibility within a graphical
display of the capacity situation before
conversion. Necessary capacity adjust-
ments because of breakdowns, company
vacation or extra shifts can be realized
in a fast and easy way.
The integration of classic application
functions concerning the processing of
production, process and planned orders
is available as well. Without any prob-lems topics such as conversion, release
and print of planned orders, scheduling,
confirmation, exception messages, miss-
ing parts situations, global availability,
COGI processing etc. can be detected,utilized and handled. Because of the
integration into the SAP system data will
always be up-to-date and online.
Many companies are facing the major
challenge of WIP and its periodic deter-
mination. With G.I.B Dispo-Cockpit
Planning cost surveys and cost analyses
including target/actual comparisons can
be created and transferred to different
WIP analyses including history and trendat the level of hierarchy nodes.
